Searchcoil Sweeping Hints:
Never sweep the searchcoil as if it were a pendulum. Raising the
searchcoil while sweeping or at the end of a sweep will cause false
readings.
Sweep slowly, hurrying will cause you to miss targets.
It’s better you sweep the search coil from side to side in an arc line
of 3 inches motion and keep the search coil parallel with the
ground.
If the detector detects the item, it sounds a tone, an arrow and the
depth appear on the display below the target icon.
If the detector does not detect the item, make sure that the
operating mode is set correctly for the type of metal you’re
searching for. Also make sure that you’re moving the search coil
correctly.
Notes:
The detector responds with a signal when it detects most
valuable metal objects. If a signal does not repeat after you
sweep the search coil over the target a few times, the target is
probably junk metal.
